     Robin's Plantain looks a lot like an aster, but it blooms in spring through early summer.  Its rays are whitish to light purple surrounding yellow centers.

 

     Robin's Plantain makes a great ground cover for a sunny to partly shady area.  After the flowers fade and the stems die back, the rosettes are a beautiful green for the rest of the season.

 

     Butterflies and bees love this plant.  This plant, however, does not like soils too rich in organic matter.  Sandy and rocky are best.

 

     Fun fact: Robin's Plantain is so beautiful in flower, the Latin pulchellus translates to beautiful
